A guide for A level students

FORMULAE & EQUATIONS
INTRODUCTION
This Powerpoint show is one of several produced to help students understand
selected topics at AS and A2 level Chemistry. It is based on the requirements of
the AQA and OCR specifications but is suitable for other examination boards.
Individual students may use the material at home for revision purposes or it may
be used for classroom teaching if an interactive white board is available.
Accompanying notes on this, and the full range of AS and A2 topics, are available
from the KNOCKHARDY SCIENCE WEBSITE at...
www.knockhardy.org.uk/sci.htm
Navigation is achieved by...
either
clicking on the grey arrows at the foot of each page
or
using the left and right arrow keys on the keyboard
USEFUL DEFINITIONS
Element
A substance which cannot be split into anything simpler by chemical means.
Atom
The smallest part of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction.
Molecule
The smallest particle of a compound (a combination of two or more elements).
It is also the name given to the smallest part of those elements which do not exist
as atoms in the free state i.e.
hydrogen
nitrogen
chlorine
iodine
H2
N2
Cl2
I2
oxygen
fluorine
bromine
O2
F2
Br2
N.B. ionic compounds (e.g. sodium chloride) do not exist as molecules.
USEFUL DEFINITIONS
Ion
The name given to any electrically charged atom or molecule.
• positively charged ions are known as cations
• negatively charged ions are known as anions
Like charges repel but unlike (opposite) charges attract. If the sum of all the
positive charges is equal and opposite to all the negative charges then the
species will be neutral (no overall charge).
Symbol
A symbol represents one atom, or one mole, of an element.
USEFUL DEFINITIONS
Formula
A formula represents one molecule of a compound, or the simplest ratio of the
ions present. As with symbols, a formula represents a single particle or one mole
of particles.
The number of atoms or groups of atoms in a formula is given by putting a small
number just below and behind the symbol(s). As the appearance of a symbol
indicates one atom is present, a 1 isn’t written (you put NaBr not Na1Br1).
In some formulae brackets are used to avoid ambiguity. Aluminium sulphate has
the formula Al2(SO4)3 to show that there are two Al’s to every three SO4‘s. Without
the brackets it would appear as though there were forty three O’s i.e. Al2SO43.
USEFUL DEFINITIONS
Valency
A numerical measure of the combining power of an atom / ion.
Historically, it was the number of hydrogen atoms which will combine with one
atom, or group of atoms.

Valency

Compound
CH4
NH3
H2O
HCl
It is also the number of positive (+) or negative (-) charges on an ion.
Many elements (e.g. iron) have more than one valency. To avoid ambiguity, a
number appears in brackets after the name e.g. iron(III); this is the oxidation
number and can be used to give you the valency.
CONSTRUCTION OF FORMULAE
Methods
Several methods are available, choose the one which suits you, or the situation,
best. Magnesium chloride is used as an example.
1.
Balance the number of ionic charges. All compounds are electrically
neutral so the number of positive and negative charges must balance.
Magnesium ions are Mg2+, chloride ions Cl¯. You need two Cl¯ ions to
balance the 2+ ion of magnesium. Therefore the formula will be MgCl2.
magnesium ion
chloride ion
Mg2+
Cl ¯
Cl ¯
Mg2+
Cl ¯

Methods
Several methods are available, choose the one which suits you, or the situation,
best. Magnesium chloride is used as an example.
2.
Use “hooks”. The valency is the number of “hooks” an element or group has.
All hooks must be joined up so there are no spares.
Magnesium has two “hooks”, — Mg — , chlorine has one, Cl — . Join up all
“hooks”; this gives you Cl — Mg — Cl . The formula is thus MgCl2.

Methods
Several methods are available, choose the one which suits you, or the situation,
best. Magnesium chloride is used as an example.
3.
Switching the valency numbers if two valencies are different. Don’t write in a
1 and cancel any combination of numbers which can be reduced (e.g. Mg2O2
will become MgO).
• the valency of magnesium is two, so multiply chlorine by two
• the valency of chlorine is one, so multiply magnesium by one to give Mg1Cl2
• the formula will be MgCl2.

example: aluminium sulphate
• the valency of aluminium is 3 and that of sulphate is 2
• they will combine in the ratio of 2 aluminiums to 3 sulphates [i.e. 2x3 = 3x2]
• the formula will be Al2(SO4)3. [Notice the use of brackets]

BALANCING EQUATIONS
Equations • show the formulae of the reactants and the products.
• show the relationship between the numbers of each substance
involved; this is known as the STOICHIOMETRY
• can show in which state the substances exist.
BALANCING EQUATIONS
1 Work out what has reacted and what has been formed. Word equations help.
2
Get the correct formula for each species. Include the state symbols if
necessary. Once you have obtained the correct formula of a species you
must not change it to help balance an equation.
3
Check to see if it is balanced. An equation balances if the same number of
each type of atom appears on either side of the arrow.
4
Place large numbers in front of any formula to indicate if more than one of it is
required. This multiplies everything in the formula immediately behind it.
5
Finally, check the equation to see that you have balanced it correctly.

must not change. One can only get extra H’s by having two waters; multiply H2O by two.
